I ask for a DL for safety reasons. I run their name and DOB in the system to see if they have a record of anything that could put me in harms way. I also cross check that with the other info I ask for like a LinkedIn profile to make sure the person matches up or a provider reference to also check on said client. This is a dangerous industry and there are some crazy people out there we do what we have to protect ourselves

It's unlike the old days, before cell phones and the internet. Where the escorts kept scrap paper in one of her drawers or her closet, with names and numbers. You walk in, and four girls are renting the apartment (which still happens)

But sometimes, a bunch of guys is waiting around, and something like this happens...

Neither can I.  I never thought that having such info fall into the hands of LE automatically means I could be arrested but that doesn't mean I want that info in their hands either.
